This offering is two attractive blocks of productive pasture land on the edge of Exmoor National Park, sold freehold and extending to about 51.53 acres in total (Lot 1: 26.33 acres; Lot 2: 25.20 acres). Both lots enjoy good road frontage and convenient vehicular access, level to gently sloping terrain and strong visual appeal — suitable for livestock grazing, fodder production, conservation or equestrian uses, subject to any necessary consents. Lot 1 benefits from a mains water supply; Lot 2 has natural watering from a stream.
Practical considerations are clear and important. The land lies within a nitrate vulnerable zone and is sold without any Basic Payment Scheme entitlements or de-linked payments. The vendors retain hunting rights across the land. There are two bowl barrow burial mounds on Lot 1 which are registered as a Scheduled Monument; this historic designation may constrain certain works and will require enquiries before any change of use or development.
Services are minimal: only mains water to Lot 1 is confirmed and no other mains services are provided. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow and mobile signal is average, which may affect certain rural business uses. Prospective buyers should make their own enquiries about service connections and planning constraints.
This is a straightforward rural purchase for a buyer seeking productive pasture with scope for agricultural, conservation or amenity uses. The convenient location close to Bratton Fleming, local schools and road links to Barnstaple and the A361 makes the land accessible while retaining a remote, unspoilt character. Buyers looking for development will need to factor in the Scheduled Monument, NVZ status and likely planning constraints.
